Hongxu Jia d4bc9704a5 perf: fix do_compile failure with /tmp mounted with noexec
On a builder which has /tmp mounted nexec, the ARM64 generation of
the sycall table will fail:
[snip]
|perf-1.0/tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls//mksyscalltbl:
/tmp/create-table-6VGPSt: Permission denied
[snip]

To avoid the permission denied error, we must instruct the perf build
to place temporary files in an appropriate directory (versus always
using /tmp). To do this, we need both a kernel source change to perf,
and a recipe change to pass the temp directory in by a TMPDIR variable.

The linux-yocto has a reference kernel change: [perf arm64: Fix generate
system call table failed with /tmp mounted with noexec], that has also
been submitted upstream mailing list linux-perf-users@vger.kernel.org

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
